I've kind of skipped ahead to some bookmarking sites, thanks to the presentation at ARLD on Monday. I've signed up for CiteULike and Furl, just to see how I like them. I'm not sure how useful these will be, since CiteULike doesn't play with many of the databases we have, but we'll give 'em a whirl.
The really crazy part of it is how blank your mind goes once you have logged in for the first time. There I am with a brand new Furl account and I can't think of a single website I want to add, even though I've spent so many unhappy moments in the past wondering "whatever happened to such-and-such a site."
Perhaps I'll just give into my inner web nerd and only have a short list of extremely useful sites. I heard a report the other day about what the most popular uses of the web were. I can't remember what they were, but I'm sure it was along the lines of socializing with friends, porn, and videos (not necessarily in that order). I turned to Nick and said my favorite use of the web was banking. He didn't seem the least bit surprised . . .
